New England Pot Roast #RecipeMakers

When it comes to recipes, I like quick and easy. I don’t have the time or energy to spend hours in the kitchen cooking. I especially love products that make cooking easier and quicker. Kraft just came out with some new meal starters, called Recipe Makers. I’m always up for some help in the kitchen :).

I headed to Safeway and checked out the Recipe Makers. I found them with the marinades and other meal starters. I thought that this New England Pot Roast one looked yummy (and boy was it!).

Remember how I said I like easy. I completely forgot to put it in the crock pot until 30 minutes before we had to leave for church. I was able to get it all ready and in the crock pot with 10 minutes to spare!

This is what you will need:

Kraft Recipe Makers New England Pot Roast

1 lb red potatoes, diced

1 package baby carrots

1 onion, diced

1 roast

You put the veggies and roast into the crock pot. I put 3/4 of the carrots in first and place the roast on top of them. I added a cup or two of water too. Then I added the rest of the veggies. I then put in the simmer sauce. Cook on high for 6 to 8 hours or on low for 8 to 10 hours.

15 minutes before eating, add the finishing sauce and cover and cook for 15 minutes on high.

This was so delicious! I thoroughly enjoyed it and all my kids loved it too. The herb sauce gave the roast a sweet taste, that was my favorite thing about it. As I was eating, I had to force myself to stop getting more and more because it was so good. Pretty sure I had thirds :).

There were seven different flavors at Safeway, I can’t wait to try some more of the Kraft #RecipeMakers. There are 3 different ways to cook them, crock pot, skillet or oven. Each one has a certain way to cook. All of them you add fresh ingredients and combine them with their unique and flavorful sauces.

I would love it if you followed along.
